What epics.

Sela, Yee, I'm g G.

Maguire, I'm Jordie Jr.

I'm Algie Smith.

I'm on the coast God periods.

Don't forget the middle name.

Listen, before this show started, we were saying the coast Gout is a conversationalist.

Yes, she.

We do not want to label her as a relationship expert, even though that's how I look at it.

Yes, you're a conversationalist.

Right, Well, you asking me I'm going to say a comedy.

You're not going to say it.

I'm not going to say it.

But you got whole games and everything.

Yeah, you got a game, the dating game, right, yes, dating card game.

Okay, And I want to tell you that Jordan in particular was excited.

She was like, I cannot wait to do that's your single.

Yes, I'm ready.

Well I don't know if I'm ready to mingle, but I'm open to it.

You open to it, I'm open to it.

I'm a little break right now.

Okay, Yeah, your break is always good, you know, because what you're doing on the break nothing.

And then how she was nervous because you know he has a whole breakup ep and so we want to dig into what type of person he is.

Because it was very and he's very tight lipped about the relationships.

That's what I was going to be.

We'll see.

My congratulations though.

You know you've been killing it too by the way out here.

It's just I think it's just amazing to see everything you've done, and then with the music, because some people didn't even know you do.

Music, which is crazy.

So it has to feel good when you're putting out music and it's really resonating with people.

Yeah, it does.

It does because I love both.

I love both both of my crafts very deeply, and I take them very seriously and I put a lot of time into them.

And so for people to respect both of them and for me to be building the respect in that in that world like I am in the acting world, it's just it's dope.

I feel like people really want you to be an athlete, like a lot of them that you play.

The film right now.

I really I was going.

To ask you, because that's you boxing.

I was like, is that for a roller for yourself?

Yes, for a role.

So I'm doing a film with Jamie Fox right now, and it's based on the nineteen eighty four Olympic boxing team.

That's all I can say because they might.

Okay, that's great.

Boxes my favorite sport to watch.

Yeah, yeah, you're gonna watch one on Saturday.

Crawford and Can Yes, I who you got?

I got Crawford Court.

Bo Okay that's what we went.

Yeah, of course, Okay, what do you I don't know if everybody in here watching it.

To go watch you know what I'm saying.

But I went to that sh That was kind.

But I was say boxing matches are a great place to go because it it's definitely very male heads.

Sporting events in general.

I was just saying this.

I went to a Jets game yesterday.

Not a football girly, but I do love the Ravens.

I was like, this is the perfect place for single ladies to me man, and it was just me and one my cute little friend.

I'm like, they're.

Swimming and go to the Mail sports, golf, tennis?

Okay she did?

Ye went to the US US.

You know.

Yeah.

I tell people to like, if you want to date people, be thinking someone's going to just show up at the door, Like you got to make an effort if you want to.

Like, I love that you're going on because you're also having fun while you're going out, So you would do it anyway.

But then it's nice when like you don't got to pay for a drink that part.

Yes, are you the type of person alg when you go out that you buy drinks for ladies, even if it's you're not trying to holler at them.

I'm not doing it all the time, but I don't mind doing it though, because.

More it depends on where you are certain places.

It's regional because New So I'm a Jersey girl and so that's what we do up here.

But I live in Atlanta, Georgia, and it's just not like that.

You're gonna talk.

They're gonna talk you to death forever.

I live in Atlanta too, And I literally have a friend who was like, he's a guy, and he's like, he's from Detroit, and we know the Detroit guys like to spend money.

They're very generous, right, they won't even speak to you, they just send a drinks.

Yeah.

Love that.

So we had a whole debate one day because he's like, you should never have to spend money when you're outside.

He's like, if I saw you anywhere, I would just walk up and pay your tab just because how.

Fine you are.

And I'm like, that's not my life.

You chased and spend much when I go out.

Now there are the person.

You know, we do get, you know, the perks.

But he made it seem like every time I stop about the door watchuld never spend a dollar.

But that is from who you getting.

Are you interested in the one that you're getting the perks from?

Then that's the other thing.

Right.

Well, we had a whole debate about this up here with Snapdog.

I'm going to ask you, Algie, as the man in the room, if you're buying, like say you're at a bar and you send a woman a drink, does that mean that Let's say she accepts it, but she's in a relationship, is that disrespectful to her man?

If her man is there, he's.

Not there.

Drink over she just says thank you?

That's it?

Like?

Is that like she disrespecting her man?

Or mmmm?

I think.

I want to say if it was my girl, then no, you're not.

He selling the drink from Why are you selling and drink from a nigga?

It don't matter.

But on the flip side, if I saw myself doing it, I could see how a woman would accept it.

So I guess I'm just very contradicting myself.

Right, You're like, because you know your intentions, but you don't know where somebody else's intentions are.

Might be like, I'm just getting you a drink exactly, So why.

Would you just get someone to drink that You're not interested.

In that part too?

And I'm not just buying drinks because you're beautiful though.

You know what's crazy.

I was at the bar one day with this guy and there.

Was a girl sitting by herself, like across the bar.

He was like, let's pay for her drinks and I was like, okay, And he paid for her drink, didn't think anything.

It was really nice to do it because she was sitting by herself at the bar.

He didn't go over and speak like anything.

I didn't.

And he's just a friend of mine, so even if he wanted to, I wouldn't care.

But he wasn't.

She was like regular.

She wasn't you know, she wasn't bad.

She wasn't.

He wasn't even looking at it, like to talk to her.

He was a woman by herself.

Sometimes you want to and I've done that before the people like I've been at restaurants and seeing like women out celebrating and be.

Like, let's take care of their tab.

So I think it's it's like sometimes to pay it forward type.

Sometimes in this world people don't just like sometimes you just feel like I had a great day.

Let me tell you.

I don't know.

I just think like that though.

So yet last night I was walking home from the bar and has spent I was watching the Lines and we lost, so I spent a lot of money in the bar.

I was yesterday and then surprised.

I'm very surprised because when.

Did Lines make it to the super Bowl?

They lose the Super Bowl?

Yeah, that was they didn't make it to the playoff.

Yeah, and I was there at play in Detroit when they lost that game.

Okay, I didn't have.

My card and so I went to the ice cream shop and I was going to get some ice cream.

I didn't have no more casual on my card.

So you're not lactose intolerant.

I'm not.

Was just like, I'll get it for you, Like, no one should not have ice cream, just like, let's look, yeah, I.

Cream crazy to me because I feel like people think everything is so transactional when people really just do something nice.

I mean, the world we live in a lot of people are very transaction though.

It's like the.

Quality of relationships is low key being lost because of transaction.

It's crazy.

Do you think that it's an era of because a lot of people equated to how people are looking at other people's lives and things that are put on social media?

Do you think that they had something to do with this transactional vibe they.

Ran right now.

You're saying, like like trying to keep up pretty much?

Yeah, I think yeah, for sure.

Yeah, And everybody just focused on like and it's not wrong to be focused on year agos and what you want to do.

But I think the humanity and relationships is a real thing.

Just checking on people or just like talking to them on the phone just because not because I got to ask you know what I'm saying.

Right, I want to ask you what is this fucking jet to Holiday thing?

Where it's come from?

So I know a little bit about it.

So Jet to Holiday is a company based in Europe in the UK where it's like, you know how it's like a travel agency.

So as Americans, we just book our own ship and we travel.

You know, we booked through the airline or through Expedia or back in the day, people actually used to frequent travel agencies.

Well, in the UK they have this company called Jetsu Holli.

They were people actually save up for their family vacation for the year or whatever and they pay on it in jets lay.

Yeah, and Jetsu Holiday is the actual company.

So this, this sound that we're hearing is a is a it's a commercial.

So you know, wait, going back, you know vacation they call it holiday, right, So there's a commercial that's been running for years, this commercial that we hear.

Somehow somebody found the sound and made it go viral and the people on the internet, I don't want to say the wrong word, the people on the internet ran with it.

It just blew it up into something that is just dumb and then like money.

Like somebody said in the comments earlier that was taking Mariah.

I don't even know what it means, but it's just funny.

Every time you hear it, the vacation turns into a disaster.

It's all funny games and then show the gentlement down fall the trip.

Now, I'm like, what did they think about that marketing?

Because it's kind of giving disasters.

Like is it the argument of all press is good pressure?

Yeah, for sure, because I'm not.

Going to hold you.

Yeah, I went and searched up what is.

You need to make a movie?

A jetsu holiday movement?

Time right now?

Let me in the next month.

Though I know she got one.

I already have yet, I already have you know, So, can you think about the first vacation that you've ever been with been on a woman?

Like been with on?

I can't even vacation with a woman.

What was the first vacation you ever took?

I went to Hawaii that was.

Like that was like four years ago.

It wasn't this like committed relationship or with it like.

Okay, So we went to Hawaii, a Paara cl for the first time, snorker for the first time.

I got to see just to smurs the whole of Hawaii.

But I was on.

I was in Waikiki.

Next time, I want to go to a wai Ho because I heard that's more it's not so touristic.

Okay, Okay, I place, you know what I'm saying.

Nothing now?

Is this the young lady who this EP break up EP was about?

Okay?

So it's a different one, different real person.

Okay, he caup at the time, all right, so I want to hear about this.

I think he didn't take.

You start the EP off with numb and I know what that feels like when you feel like you're talking to a guy and he don't give a ship man, you know what I'm saying, and he's just like you're trying to pour your heart at you're expressing it, and he's just yeah, it's like a defense mechanism thing.

Low key, yeah, in the position that I was describing in the EP that I was in.

So the breakup was my.

Fault, I'll start there, Okay, Okay, let me drink.

I'm taking a whole account of there for what I worked through, my problems with it.

I sat with myself with it.

I would deal with my my certain things about it.

But at the time you weren't acting like it was your fault.

Though.

Is this something that looking back you take accountability or looking.

At accountability because I was a little pig headed in the moment.

You know, it's like either what I want or.

You know what I'm saying, my way highway.

That's that is not conducive to a real relationship.

And so at that point when I when I did numb, it was just she had already left.

And then for me to not have to feel the accountability and feel the regret and feel all of that, I just felt like I don't want to feel anything at all.

So I'm just goning to know myself, like I'll forget it.

I'm just go out and let me drink, let me smoke some let me not have to think about it, because when I think about it, I'm going to realize it was my fault.

What was your fault?

Like, what did you do?

I was cheating?

Yeahship, why here we go?

Why were you?

Were you cheating to feel a void?

Were you bored?

I?

Did I have something to do with everything that's happening in your life right now with all the notoriety, And I think it's all that right.

I think obviously the notoriety as a big part to it because people are just loki throwing themselves at you and yeah, and so with that, so yeah, with that, it was that I was kind of bored.

Yeah, And I just at that time I didn't have as much self control as I wanted to.

So I had a lot of growing to do and a lot of discipline.

And how did she catch you?

She went to my phone a couple of times.

Okay, that's always.

I woke about my sleep one time and she was going through it.

She woke me on just like huh wait right now, like I just see black.

I don't know what's going on.

So was it with more than one woman or.

Yeah, it was with a couple m hmm.

But it was over a time span of like, uh, three or four year relationship.

But it wasn't like more than it wasn't more than two people.

Yeah, but still it doesn't matter though.

Right right?

You think it's worse when some the teats with like only one or two other people, or sometimes we feel like it's not as big a deal if it's like a whole bunch of people, like you.

Just have a problem.

But if it's like one other person, you really cared about that.

Other person, you actually engage and have a conversation with them and find out do they even think they're in a relationship, because more unlikely they thought they would in a relationship even if you didn't.

That wasn't the case though.

Yeah, I wasn't leading anybody on, like okay, sure, Yeah, I promise you.

You know, we'll make it what we wanted to be.

But that energy.

But you just said it though, so what I would.

I'm very I'll be very transparent at the top.

I'll let you know what I'm not looking for.

I'll let you know what I am looking for.

Now.

What you decide to make up in your head after that is.

Not align with you.

I don't like.

I don't like it.

Does where you protecting yourself?

Yeah, the entire time.

With them to people he was getting you can't having a condo, no kidding the car head.

You know morning didn't on the street when they jump in your car for.

We ain't gonna figure out what is crazy.

But you know, at a point like that, when someone goes through your phone, the first thing that God does is get mad at you for going through his phone.

Yeah that's what you like?

What you you don't my mama?

Clearly you can't have reason to go and check she found what she was looking for.

And then you're like, now I can't trust you because you try to.

Turn it around some crazy you guys do you did No, I didn't do that.

I actually took it on the chin.

I was like, yeah, you're right, Like I fucked up, It's my fault.

Did you want to stay after that?

Did I want to stay?

The other day?

Like, this's a very good question because a lot of time it's like did they want you to stay?

But it's like did you want to stay?

A part of me did and a part of me didn't.

It's a lot of work to stay after that.

That's why, because you know, you know that like, Okay, now this is now the whole structure is damaged.

Now You're always going to feel like this now, I'm always going to have to fight this.

I wanted to.

Stop doing what you're doing just because she went through.

What she calls you exactly exactly.

So that's why I said, like even after the relationship ended, it took me about a year.

It's took me about six months.

To a year to really like have to be with myself and not even really entertaining a lot of women to be real, and you just kind of like figure out, Okay, if I want to do this the next time, how do I want to do it, and what do I what do I want to not do and what I want to do right for the relationship, not saying, however, not saying what is writing what's wrong?

But for me and for the relationship, I get into what do I want to do right?

And what I want to do?

What I want to do anymore?

That it's interesting because on this EP right, Magic City is a song on there, and I feel like when guys go through something and you break up with them, the first thing they're going to do is.

Try to act like they are extra and what they're going to.

Come on, we're going to pick you up.

Man, We're going to.

Me and my women are the exact opposite were scribed.

But then we heal, you know, you let that.

And then when we heal.

Because y'all do the real work faster than we try to avoid, and then.

We got to sit with the real work later.

Right, So y'all, y'all go through the feelings.

First, we mask your first, y'all get over it, and then we gotta go do it.

Because even how guys express themselves to each other, it's not like you was.

Like, man, and I'm really hurt.

I shouldn't like y'all would be like, yeah, she went through my ship, yo, Let's go to Magic City.

That's how guys.

But we'd be like, oh my god, you don't believe, and.

We're gonna talk about every little detail three times, yeah, a thousand times.

He ain't anyway, Like.

You know, we're gonna do all of that, Like we're gonna talk about every single detail of what he did to us, what happened, what was in those text messages.

We're gonna cry, we're gonna sit at home, we're gonna have our girlfriends over.

That's the real work, though, like you're letting it out, you know.

I feel like y'all don't have the space to like, your boy's gonna come over, and I know you like ice cream, but they're not gonna come over.

Eat ice cream.

The definitely.

Doing that.

And then so the song the way it goes.

I really like that song on the EP in particular, and that it's really about knowing when to let it go, because sometimes it's like people act like you're supposed to fight for your relationship, and I want to ask you about that, like when do you stop fighting?

Because that's hard to because people feel like, oh, you just gave up.

Oh you're not gonna fight, Oh you're not gonna you know, try to work through this.

Then you didn't really care.

And I feel like sometimes women, if a man cheats, they'll be like, well, he's a good man, he just messed up, Like you can't just let all these years or whatever go.

But I always feel like when you do something and get caught, a woman has a they have the right to do whatever they want.

If they're like, this is it, I'm not doing it, like nobody should argue that.

So what do you think about when is it time to say?

And I want to ask everybody, when is it like, Okay, we got to just let this go.

When he's not giving any more energy, Like if he's nonchalant, like I don't know, Like if she's pouring out her heart and he's just sitting there with no response, no feedback, no nothing, and you leave me to myself to create this narrative in my head what's really happening, then that's time.

It's time to go.

Every situation is different, though, because not everyone is going to leave when their person cheeks.

Now, if he's remorseful and he's like, I apologize, y'all have the difficult conversation, then I think it's cool to give especially if you're single and not married.

I mean be clear if you married, it's actually so if you're just dat, you're just dating, then you're still trying to figure it out, right, And just like we're on our own journey, the man he's on his journey too, He's trying to figure it out too.

And that's a lot of times women don't realize that we're both on a journey trying to figure it out.

So if he cheats, then that's the time to have that difficult conversation and find out what it is that you really want to do moving forward.

Did you guys live together?

No?

I never lived, are you never having?

Always have my own spots, So even if I would be over there all the time, I could still go to myf.

I have a toothbrush here.

Can I ask my question?

Algi, did you how did you feel about the other woman that you cheated with?

Like once you a girl, she found out that she were cheating, Like, how did you treat that situationship?

I think I didn't feel anything about it because it wasn't even a situation ship.

It was just like one off.

It was just one off, Okay, So I didn't even them.

People weren't even in my mind to be honest.

I hate to say, but it's the truth.

The truth.

So yeah, I didn't even have any feelings towards in your real what did.

You learn from all this?

To delete those messages?

I want my mother is just to be straight up and not to lie, like.

Did you want to go do it?

I want to go do it?

I mean, I know, did she just found out?

Did she asking?

You said?

No, No, she just found out.

But I mean, if you're if you're dating someone and you're doing something behind the back, that's low key line.

Yeah, when are you going to be straight up like listen, when you're gonna yes.

I've been doing this for no reason.

Made her go into your phone in the first place?

If these were like one offs and it wasn't.

Serious when I think that was the moment he had that orgasm.

She was wrong, right, something.

Different, different, going different, you know how your phone like that.

I don't think I was moving different.

I just think that she just had an intuition and that she just I just think that she just didn't trust me off top from jump because she just knew, like what type of life so I'm in, So she just like maybe she maybe in the back of her head she thought it was going to come where she knew it was going to come.

So I feel like she always was just like, you know, I'm here because I love you, but I don't fully trust you.

So it started off that way.

I think that's a hard way to start a relationship when you already don't trust it and nothing happened yet, because you kind of got to start with a clean slate.

Yeah, yeah, have you been cheated on?

Have I cheated on?

No?

Nothing, you know it's very good.

Well, yeah, you're right, nothing I know, but I only had two serious relationships.

Well wow, so to my knowledge, no, I haven't been because you're right, y'all are very good.

Though y'all are very good, Like I probably wouldn't even ship.

I probably wouldn't even know.

But to my knowledge, do you.

Think women are better cheaters than men?

Absolutely?

Yeah, I think we're better at everything, no offense.

But though we have one foot out the door, best believe that we're not just cheating and we're you know, we're with you.

We already got one foot out the door, and it's just a matter of time before we let you know.

It's so, would you say that, like if a man cheats is not as serious as a woman cheating because I.

Think so because some times men can objectify women and they just want to sleep with them.

It's nothing, there's no emotional attachment.

It's something that they did right.

Whereas with us, if we make the decision to sleep with another man, then there's a deficit in our relationship period.

It's something missing, something that's not happening, something that we're not getting that maybe we did but we're not getting now and we're already moving.

On subconsciously, or we was never fully in it, or we're.

Never fully in it.

Absolutely, So let me ask you something.

Do y'all think monogamy is like the real way for humanity?

Absolutely?

It works for me.

It works for me.

But if that's not what you want to do, I just want to say, Joey Badass sat up here and acted like it wasn't for him, and now looking at.

Him, I love that.

He's all in.

Yeah.

I don't know.

I haven't been in a long term relationship in a long time, and the last one that I was in I felt myself getting bored.

And I feel like at some point, if I was with somebody for ten fifteen years, I think I would have a conversation with opening it up in some capacity.

What that was, I don't know.

I don't know.

Maybe I wouldn't feel that way about the right person, but I don't know.

I think people are just so closed off to ideas before they even allow themselves to explore the concept or even have the conversation.

So I think i'd be at least open to you think if I don't give a shit, that's the problem.

I don't really give anything.

I really don't, and that's one of my problems.

Do you feel like if you really had feelings for a dude, though, and you really cared about them, that you were still not give a shit?

I you really cared about them though.

When that happens, I'll let you know.

I don't.

Yeah, I like that me and vulnerability are that's my struggle.

That's my red flag right there.

So I don't know if I've ever let myself.

Get that far.

You haven't felt comfortable enough, right, you know?

You did this ep level loss, So I have to think that this was something that meant a lot to you to actually put together a whole project.

Yeah, it did, it did.

What did she did you tell her that you were doing this or no.

I didn't.

She probably obviously heard it by now, but definitely heard it.

Yeah, but I.

Didn't tell her I was doing it.

But it did mean a lot to me.

I think it meant a lot.

It meant a lot to me too, because I'm just a very empathetic person, and so I know what I did was hurt someone and I didn't feel good about that, And I think that I just had to, like I said, go through my process of dealing with myself in certain aspects and then you know, I do art, so why not put it in my art or share it?

Because when I was thinking, I was just like, this is going to be the most relatable thing to people.

Everybody has been through heartbreak, at least a lot of people, so a lot of people can relate to that.

So how do I be as authentic as I can be even.

Though it's you don't want to admit to the world.

That, yeah, I was, I was a trash nig relag ship that wasn't good.

You know what I'm saying.

You don't want to admit that exactly what it's related where people actually go through that, men actually feel like that.

So I'm like, you know, what I've been through.

It.

It's my story.

I'm gonna tell it, and.

Especially if you learn from it, Yeah, forwards a better man exactly.

Yeah, because I ain't trying to be out in these streets whatever.

Man, I want to build myself with family, like I want to.

I want to, I have.

I have plans and goals of owning like three hundred acres and building my family compound and having my wife and my kids and all that.

One wife, you know what I'm saying.

But what do y'all feel about that?

Though?

Like I mean, obviously relationship is different, But what do y'all feel about?

But look at me?

Yeah, women are opening up to the idea, especially where I live in Atlanta, and they say that they're more they're open to the lifestyle.

But I just think that they're tired of having a long shelf value, Like they're tired of waiting for meeting the right one.

So then they settle and tell themselves, Oh, I'm engaging in this lifestyle and these are the benefits.

But really and truly, they're just tired of waiting for that one person.

They're like, I've been single for however many however, many years.

However, long and I want to be in a relationship.

You feel like that, no, younger men, do you think that that could be you avoiding a relationship with somebody who's ready to be in one.

No, the thing, this is my thing.

So you you probably know a little bit of my story.

I was cellibate for eight years, single, not dating, and those eight years, Yeah, those years, it's like I got to make up.

Like and I.

Typically don't for the sake of a conversation because I typically don't tell my age.

But guys, I'm fifty one.

Right, amazing, Yeah, that's crazy, that's great.

Yeah, And so I attract younger men most people, and then I feel like the men my age are older, they're not gonna want to do the things that I want to do.

I feel like they're not gonna want to go the places I want to go.

They're not even gonna dress like I want them to dress.

I just think at a certain age, it's those things are just not important.

And because of those eight years that I didn't get to do it, it's like I'm making up for that time.

It's almost like I'm eight years younger than what I really am.

That's how I feel because I really didn't live during those eight years, Like my life literally went on pause.

So I'm just like, it's just I've tried it and it's just.

Not what I like to do.

And I don't try to say that you like to do that.

You feel like girl like to have fun.

I mean, do you know when you get like, you know, at the fifties, when you start having health issues and you know.

What, is it.

Not menopause for me, because that's good for them.

For the younger guys that.

Would a comes impotent.

Yeah, you know that's the.

Age range for you that you're leaning towards.

When it comes to the younger man, I.

Would say, I would say a ten year gap.

No, no, younger, because I've tried it and it doesn't work.

The conversation is totally just it's crazy.

I have a sixteen year age gap in my relationship currently.

Wow, who's younger?

Yeah?

Actually, like my daughter like you, she don't care, she's happy for me.

I'm but you have fun, right, I don't have a.

Different And I was.

Very skeptical at first because of that main reason of my daughter being around his same age, like a not even a year apart, and also like we it's a long distance relationship.

So those were the two red flags, but we work through it.

We waited nine months to have sex, like it was like a whole like journey, and now we're like fifteen months in and it's I'm we're yeah, what do you think you're waiting to have sex?

Algie, Like if you.

Were like we did that on purpose?

Yeah, I want to know how y'all managed those nine months.

Well, there was a time you did didn't see each other for four months.

Four months went byble dollar seeing each other.

Okay, so that's that.

And then honestly, there was a time and we had sex in I think April.

There was a time in January that I wanted to give him something, but I got sick so it didn't happen.

So in my mind it was gonna happen at night I was getting It's like, because.

We still.

Don't see it, dur ship, there was like one time.

There was nothing touch So are you you'll please obviously relationships, he said, no, Ship, I think waiting is.

Cool if that's what you want to do.

I think I don't you know, I think it just depends on the relationship and the people in the relationship because I've waited sometimes to depending on the person.

I don't know, but I think it just depends.

I respect.

I respect people's boundaries and spirituality if they are like, you know what, I want to wait and save myself, or I've even fasted from sex some time in a relationship, like I just need to take some time for Like.

My plan was like three months only lasted like a month.

Yeah, what did I do for you?

It did bring a lot of clarity though for.

Me is it I was just able to kind of just lock in more on certain things with myself and even with her though, like we weren't focused on sex.

We were just focused on building outside of that.

That was our thing.

So then what happened after thirty days?

I was there.

Because she was like, she was like, was that the longest you've ever gone without doing anything.

In a relationship.

Yeah, you didn't have sex during that time with the other women, right.

As you about your celibacy after the like after the eight years, when did you know that you were like, Okay, I'm ready again.

Because at the time, during the eight years, I was believing that someone was my husband and he was not.

So it was an erroneous belief and I had to struggle and deal with that.

And so once I put that to rest, and I was like, Okay, I want to start dating again.

And I mean cause I was like, this, ain't it you know what I'm saying, And I don't think like I still don't know because I'm still single.

I don't know if I can do it in a relationship.

Like I can do it by myself, yes, but in a relationship, I'm not so sure I could do it.

I've never tried it.

So we Shelsea.

But for me, it was just like I went from thirty three to forty one and so all of my thirties it was just like, Okay, I'm missing out on life.

I ain't living.

This is crazy.

I don't want to do this.

But now as I get older, I realize why that's so important, because, like you say, it brings a lot of clarity.

It helps you make better decisions in your relationship.

Right.

And so I just me, I hooked up with someone who I was just infatuated with some years before.

We never you know, we never done it.

So and he was he lived in Atlanta.

I moved to Atlanta, and it's like it's always like, gosh, you're just in love with this guy at the time, and he was like, he's actually ten years before he was actually abstinate.

He was like on something else, and so I was coming out of my season.

Yes it was.

You know, you talk a lot about having standards too, right, and so I wanted to ask everybody as far as standards, what would you say in a relationship your standards?

All right, Jordan, let's start with you for what you're looking for.

What are your standards.

I'm tough a job.

Okay, that's not Tom.

Well, I'm just a job.

You need to have a job.

You need to have something that you do for fun.

You need to have friends, you need to treat your parents well.

You need to have a sense of humor.

I do like my men a little uptight, like okay, reachable to these hosts, unaccessible that, but also like I sometimes I like to bug out when I'm out, and I don't want you to do that.

That's for me today.

Okay, you want you were going home?

I was like, Okay, you need to get checked just a little bit.

Yeah, Because I feel like I can be very dominant in relationships and I want someone to put me in my feminine when appropriate.

Yeah, okay, what if that's your standards?

Take everything that she said, But one of the more important things for me is someone who's in purpose.

Like that is so important to have to have similar goals and values, because what else is going to sustain the relationship when there is no sex, right, you got to have some level of compatibility or it's not going to work.

You just can't be handsome, and that's it.

It has to be something else to you.

So for me, it's purpose and that's something that I feel like before you even consider being in a relationship, you gotta have that locked in, Like what am I here for?

What is my God given assignment?

What am I called to do?

All those things that you said?

But purpose plus purpose?

What would you say, Alie, is your standards in a relationship?

I would say security in yourself and loving yourself.

First of all, I've been through a couple of different situationships where it's just when people don't love themselves, it makes the relationship, situationship, whatever, harder because now you're fighting.

Two battles insecurity is a really tough thing to battle.

It's really tough.

So I would say someone who's securing themselves, who loves themselves, someone who has some type of spiritual connection with the creator of the world.

I'm not going to say what your religion should be, but as long as there's some spiritual connection that you feel like there's something bigger than yourself, someone who is empathetic, who loves family, the idea of family.

A hard worker.

Yeah, but I'm not trying to have my woman paying the bills.

So you can work if you want to.

But I think it's just like you said, purpose, even if you ain't bringing in whatever bread, what's your purpose?

Are you doing that every day?

Are you living out your truth?

You know what I'm saying, what you want to do and not just an at home person.

Have you ever dated somebody who made more than you.

Currently?

No?

Okay, are you open to that?

Yeah?

For sure?

He's like, you know, yeah, I think I think why not?

Like if my woman made more than me, I'm like, yeah, what go back?

But you would still pay the bills?

Yeah?

I still pay the bills for sure.

Yeah.

What about you?

What you're saying, I feel like everything everybody said is spot on.

I just want to add to those things that me personally.

Communication is the biggest thing for me.

I feel like, if you cannot communicate with your partner, then why are you guys together?

And the next thing for me would be honesty.

People have a problem telling the truth.

People have a problem living in their truth, and that kind of goes with the communication hand in hand.

I've dealt with in the past people that felt like they had the hide things or that weren't you with themselves, and it just always ended in disaster.

You have a song called honest on the EP.

Are you honest?

You think I am?

Now you are?

Yeah, that's and I want to say that's the most important thing.

Like we go through stuff in life, we go through relationships, and everything should make us a better person, right, Everything is like a lesson learned, even if it didn't work out, you know, we learn these different lessons.

And you you talked about insecurity.

That's so interesting to me because, for instance, right on Euphoria, you dating Sidney Sweeney on the show, her character Cassie, Right, that's okay, So that has to be hard for somebody because they look at her as like this big sex symbol right now, like everybody's like Sidney, and so I can imagine how somebody would feel like, damn, he was, you know, on the show, and he was with Sidney Sweeney and doing X, Y and.

Z and having sex scenes.

But that is probably if you're a regular girl and that's your man, that has to feel like damn.

I don't you know how can I compare that to that?

Yeah, my girl at the time, she wasn't even really tripping.

I think she actually low key liked that.

She really Yeah, to be real with you, I.

Think she did, like, But I could I see the flip side of that though.

It's like, because I don't know if I would want to watch my girl.

Can you imagine if yet, if that was your girl doing the sex sye.

Yeah, it's just acting, But I'm not trying to see it either, you know what I'm saying.

Yeah, you never dated another person in the business, like another woman who was an.

Actress dated, no, like messed around with Fine?

Would you want to you think you think that could because then maybe you guys don't understand each other more.

But then to your point, you wouldn't want to watch something like that.

I don't think I would want to be I think when I come home, I wouldn't want to have a conversation of like, oh yeah, I was set today for you.

Oh yeah, this is how it was today for me.

When I come home, I don't want to talk about set anymore.

I want to talk about Okay, how was your day in this other field that you're doing what you're doing.

How was that that interesting?

You know?

Like so I don't think I would want to be with somebody in my field.

You know how amazing it is that you are where you are, Like coming from Saginaw, Michigan, I mean it's a big deal.

Do you ever have to sit back and think like I can't believe this is my life.

Yeah.

I don't do it that often, but I did have a moment like two weeks ago.

I was just like sitting with myself and I was just thanking God because like nobody in my family or my you know what I'm saying.

It's just I've just been so blessed to get to where I am and to be able to help the way I can.

And I'm just I don't take it for.

Granted at all.

But yeah, I'm just like, this is crazy.

The only the only ones about the Sacond is me.

Draymond Green, Stevie wonder.

I mean, doesn't y'all Serena Lewis, They talked like she's in confident but she was born in name.

But it ain't a lot of us.

Though, So it's just like, you know, it's it's really dope.

Yeah, yeah, I mean it's a big I remember watching you and the hate you give because I of that movie and seeing I know you were in the beginning and then that was it.

But that was a really impactful part of that movie, you know.

And I think you've had like some great roles, I mean really legendary.

Just to think about where you are right now and now you're about to play a box.

You haven't told us much about it, but I know that's gonna be a big one because Jamie Fox is in the tube.

It's gonna be really big.

And the story is when I read the script, I got goosebumps.

That's how I always know if it's a good script or not.

Yeah, if I get goosebumps while I'm reading it, or if I'm just like yo, I can't stop reading this.

And that's how I know when I read that, when I'm like, yo, this is gonna be because it's a true story.

It's based on a true story too, and the true story is very tragic.

So to find out more information, what's your training process?

Like, Oh, so I go to the gym from nine to four every day and we are essentially just becoming boxers.

So when we get there, we have to either run on a treadmill for an hour or were outside it and then we come back in.

We do we jump rope for a long time, and then we do sparring with each other and then we'd spar the actual pro boxers.

Game and what you spired with.

So our trainers.

I'm getting trained by a guy named Chris Algery.

So he's from Staten Island.

He was a pro boxer, very fire, and they got Mike, his nephew, Mike Algery, who was the number one amateur in New York right now, which is crazy to say.

Then another guy named Jose Jose Gonzalez.

He's he was a pro boxer as well.

So we're in there with some people that have gone the distance and fought in like the Manny Pacquias of the world.

Yeah all that, so, yeah, it's good.

You know, you can't have sex before you fight either.

So your energy.

Yeah, so you have to be at this point in time.

This is a great time for you to.

The fact.

No, the weekends, the weekends.

The weekends is good.

You know, take my Friday Saturday night.

It good.

I'm good with Monday.

I'm cool.

Yeah, that's very funny though, because it's real.

Me and my castmate were just talking about that.

Was like, like, bro, one time I showed up and I was just drained.

I couldn't get through the day.

I know that it is different.

Masturbate does.

Still releasing, like yeah, you gotta you gotta there you go.

Yeah, but yeah, you really are, Like you think you're.

Good in bed.

I think I'm great in bed?

Yeah, why, Like, who have women been like, oh my god, you're the best?

As we say that.

The best.

I mean, yeah, y'all do say that.

But one thing that y'all can't hide is faces, And one thing y'all can't hide is faces and breaths.

Y'all can't hide that.

You can't hide that, so you know, you know what I'm saying.

But you're an actor, yeah, working all those things you know you apply to women before and faked it like it was amazing just.

To get out of it early.

Same Oh, my god, I can't.

You did have to get out of there early?

Can you make yourself finished?

Like or do you?

Or have they been times when you have to pretend you were done?

Why?

Why did you want to get out of there?

It wasn't it just wasn't field or smell or oh my god.

Yeah, that's because I'm like, what would be a reason dry.

Rhythm?

Oh my god, Oh my gosh.

Like what's bad vagina in your definition?

Is it just the vagina or is it the whole experience.

With the woman?

Okay, I'll just say this, like in my experience yet, bad vagina is vagina that's not well kept, you know.

Like groomed.

Well it's well kept.

Yeah, the grooming, because I'll take like it's natural, right, like hair is natural.

You feel me?

Like, as long as it ain't looking hella crazy down there?

Like you know I'm not, yeah, but.

Oh damn, this is crazy.

A specific time I had to get up out of there was when I was messing around with this girl and we had messed around times before and she her hygen really good, like she had no problem yet normally this time when I was just hitting it from the back, there was just there was just in Aroma that was coming up, and I'm just like, just like you knew I was coming over?

Did you take a ship and then you didn't?

It's like did you did you not get in a shower?

Or like what did it Tuesday?

Taco?

I don't remember the day The first time, it's.

Usually like she was musty or trust not ship?

Yeah, shitty, And so I'm like, yo, I gotta get up out of here.

Did you tell her?

No?

I didn't tell her.

Maybe I should have told her in my mom like you know this?

How do you not write?

But did you see anything?

You know?

Because that's the time when you'd be like, what's going on in Okay?

Thank god?

I feel like it was just that wasn't be crazy?

Can you see that ship?

She didn't smell it?

Because that's what I'm saying, like.

There's no way, there's no way.

I was coming.

Damn.

After that, it's just I just didn't want to even.

Talk to her no more.

Really, so you never told her why you ended it?

Well now she know we don't know who he's talking about.

If you was the one who got ghost girl, you should have washed that ass.

You should have watched that whole body.

Even if I were, even if you were to take a ship before I have sex, I'm getting in the shower.

I care about myself that much, like I'm really big on that before I have Before I have sex at all, I'm getting in the.

Shower making I will never forget.

I was when I used to work in artist management.

One of my friends, like you know, the artist I was working with, had a show and she ended up sleeping with somebody from like the crew, and she was like, Angela.

We were in the bad.

He got it and took a ship in the bathroom in the hotel and got right back in what and she was like, she told him, She's like, you're not gonna take a shower.

She was like, I can smell the ship like you in the hotel room and in the room and got in the bad and she told me, she was like, you're not gonna like you gotta get in the shower.

Immediately, and as but me just just me personally, like I said, I care on my hygiene so much that I don't even want to even put you in a position of smelling me in.

A bad way.

So I'm going to be like, let me jump in the shower.

You give me here smelling good today?

Yeah, men don't like to tell what Colonne they were because they don't want other people to buy what type of what colonne.

It's a mix, I do, but it's a green bottle with a gold top.

But it's really green Cree.

It's really is the brand Creed, No, it's not.

Creed is cool, but I was.

Like, I smelled Creed everywhere, so many.

Different ones, you know.

Yeah, yeah, they always have new sense coming out and everything like that.

So you know, sometimes guys put too much cologne on.

Good Lord, you're still trying to jay gone for a whole day.

Calming down, bro, especially when it's a bad one, like you drenched yourself with some bullshit and now it's lingering.

Like I've smelled times when I put on too much colomny by accident, and I'm like, I got on too much colomne.

I've done that with perfume, but it's because I smoked weed.

So I always try to cover up the aroma like that.

He's been like weeding perfume.

It's crazy because we never goes anywhere, right, It's crazy.

Do you mind if a woman like comes over smelling like we I feel like we's not a bad smell.

Like if you can smell like cigarettes, that's different.

Well unless you're somebody who actually hates it.

Because I was outdated someone who hated my weed, and he didn't want to smell it, he didn't want to see it, he didn't want to taste it on my breath or my mouth, you know.

So that was that became an issue in our relationship.

Because and what you're rolling it into, I feel like makes a difference.

Sometimes I'm like, I don't like what they Yeah.

See you know I'm a no tobacco girl.

Yeah, so I'm a I'm a clean smoker.

But even still, when you got that good good do you know it?

Lingers smoke papers?

Yeah, and.

We're on a healthier side, you know what I'm saying.

All the backwoods don't work.

Now, are you actively dating even though you're single?

Like, are there do you what do you think about like a roster?

Or do you think I can only date one person at a time?

Yeah, that is me.

I can only date one person.

I'm not actively dating right now.

No, No, I mean I.

I've entertained someone recently, but it wasn't a good fit for me.

Why, Well, because he was he was a lot younger.

The conversation just wasn't there, and he talked about his previous relationship too much on the phone.

Every time we would.

Get on the phone, he would just talk about the problems, like because they had a small child.

I would they had a small child.

And then the time that I because normally I would just listen.

But then one particular time I thought to engage the conversation and I realized, this man doesn't take accountability for anything.

That's everything is someone else.

Whenever you are talking to somebody, and they are always the victim, and everything is this person did that, this person, did this, this person, and they never are like because you came in here and said at accountability, like I messed up, I cheated.

I realized now there are people that will never admit the wrong and never take responsibility for the part they played.

It was just where he proposed to this young lady, and he took the ring back.

But once you propose, like we're moving towards marriage, we're looking at houses, we're doing all these things.

Well, she wanted to buy a house, and I don't think he was in a position to be able to do.

So her mom helped her buy this house.

And he was like, who does that?

Who gets engaged and buy a house?

I said, everybody.

Yeah he could.

He didn't want to.

Afford the mortgage though he couldn't he want in a position to do it.

And I'm like, no, so I understand that out.

Yeah, like this got to get your back against the water, figure some ship out.

Okay, right, we're gonna buy this house, and then I got to figure out how to pay this mortgage.

Sometimes that's what puts you in the position to be a better person.

And like, because I feel like there's people who cost through life they do yeah, and then there's people who are like, I got to make this happen, and I'm a figure it out and do whatever I can.

But also it's like I don't know brush situation and how because everybody relationship is a certain relationship and we never know the ins and outs of it.

But I feel like that's also a time where you're like, Okay, we've fit about this house, so we're going to put together a plan that involves both of us to be able to cover this until I can fully cover it myself.

Right, right, But maybe he didn't like her doing something without.

His Well, he wanteds to rent.

And I'm like, if she was in a position to do this and her mom just I think helped her with the down payment, then I think that's cool.

But I feel like, if anything, he was slowing her down.

Yeah.

Yeah, And he just didn't want to admit that I'm non a position.

I was like, you behave me so.

Right here, my gosh, and so Algie, can you see yourself?

You know, we're just talking about all of these different things, relationships.

I wonder what it's going to be like to live with you, Like, can you see that happening?

Is that that's something that you want?

Because when yeah, that you want living with me is I mean everybody will say this, right living with me?

Yeah?

Great?

And dirty clothes I do, and the.

Floor in the bathroom.

If I leave in front of the bathroom, coming right back to get them.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So streets.

I'm pretty, I'm pretty smooth going though.

I can cook.

I'm pretty to a dish.

If a girl's coming over.

I may do some steak and some mashed potatoes and like maybe broccolini.

I've never heard anybody say that I may do some honey glaze, salmon okay, okay, cook low key my pops.

But also myself.

I did a lot of YouTube university.

Yeah, I just go in there and find different meals that I like, like like the eating restaurants, and I figure how to cook them.

So your father was a big, key part of part of your life kind of Yeah, that shapes a lot of how we deal with relationships and everything, for sure.

I feel like even for women, our fathers shape a lot of that too, like our relationship with our dads.

Yeah, a lot with y'all too, though, right, because it's like I fel like either that well, a lot with both sides.

Because the absence of a father in a man's life is really great too, Like that's not great in a good way, but it's a great absence, you know what I'm saying, Just like it isn't a woman's great impact.

Yeah.

So, have you ever proposed to anyone?

No?

Not ship, not ship.

Enjoy your life, you know what I'm saying.

You got a lot of great things happening.

I will say this, though, I don't want to wait too long to start my family, Like I would love to start a family and be married by the time, I'm like thirty six, thirty seven.

Okay, I got a little I'm thirty right now.

Yeah, yeah, time, I got some I'm not trying.

To be fifty years old as a man and be like yah, I'm staying here playing the game and I'm like, no, bro, you're supposed to be building your legacy now, like absolutely.

One of the things that you get to choose.

Yeah, you get to decide as the man when you're ready to do that.

What do you think from a woman's perspective, because we don't get to choose like we do the GFU we want to or not.

But you set the tone for the relationship that's real.

Yeah, yeah, choose wisely.

Oh yeah, for sure.

A thousand, a thousand.

Well, listen, Algie, I appreciate you so much for coming.
